"Clemson, SC and any reasonable driving distance recommendations?"


  

          

i'm going to a training next week and will have time to kill.

never been in the area and would be cool to check out some things. definitely looking for places to eat. i'll have all day monday to kill time so any places worth checking out are appreciated.

itinerary
i fly into ATL sunday, im thinking this time is all booked up but may end up with some free time so any recommendations are appreciated. will drive into Greensville/Spartanburg area with my brother Sunday night.

Monday i will be getting a rental and checking into the hotel in clemson. pretty much open day. Thinking maybe checking out Charlotte could be cool but may not be possible. Anything in the GSP area is definitely doable. maybe dinner in the clemson area.

Tuesday & Wednesday will only have the evenings open and would probably be best to stick to the clemson area.

Thursday will probably just be lunch at the airport, GSP. Any restaurant in the airport i should hit up?

not really sure if this area is known for any type of food. would like to go to unique local restaurants instead of chains. live music would be cool but i know probably not the ideal days of the week for it. open to any touristy spot to check out. i like museums and chill places. not looking to party.

For sure hit up Downtown Greenville
- Smoke on the Water is a good intro to the city when it comes to eating
-Passerelle Bistro is a good cozy place
-Tupelo Honey got a dope brunch
- Falls Park is dope
-BMW plant is there...and they have a pretty dope museum and tour
- Greenville County Museum is one of the best in the country

Clemson
Ill put it nicely
and shit to do
Downtown is fratted out...
Monterreys is a pretty good mexican place
Texas Roadhouse in Anderson SC is really good
Check to see if there are any basketball games because Clemson is actually ok this year
Its a typical white college town

any other questions inbox or reply here

She loved the downtown area.

There is a Tupelo Honey in Charlotte so if its the same company its definitely a spot to hit up.

The BMW plant looks like a space station.

Charlotte is 2 hours away so if you wwnt to hit up a Hornets game check it out. They arent that good but Kemba balls out and Howard is good for a few oops and blocks.

Maybe hit up the Gantt or another museum...

breakfast at the Terrace Cafe?

NASCAR Museum if you are into that type of shit. I heard it was a fun museum from folks who weren’t even NASCAR fans.
